A truly beautiful sword Charles especially with the cast? brass hilt. Thank you for posting it here for discussion. Could you possibly post a few close-ups of both sides of the blade as well. Great catch.

Best,
Robert

Nice pedang .
Do you consider to give it a warangan treatment ? It has a nice batu lapak at the base.

Yes, it needs a good Indonesian style "wash", but I don't have the needed chemicals here.

Thumbs up

A UNUSUAL VARIATION AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS MADE TO BE USED WITH A LANYARD WRIST STRAP OR PERHAPS JUST SOMETHING DECORATIVE. DOES IT APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN SILVER OR GOLD GILT AT ANY TIME.?

Lovely pedang! Never seen before a pedang with brass hilt. Great catch Charles.
